Summary: We reviewed the outcome of corpus callosal section in 64 adult and pediatric patients to identify factors associated with a good outcome: 48% had favorable for overall seizure frequency. Improvement was noted several types most likely drop attacks, particularly setting unilateral focal cerebral lesion or true generalized epilepsy Lennox‐Gastaut type. Poor outcomes attacks were more if there severe intellectual handicap bilateral independent spikes on interictal EEG. Complex partial...

The radial approach to coronary angiography is intuitively attractive for fully anticoagulated patients (INR > 2) but no data exist concerning efficacy or safety of this procedure. consensus view that the femoral contraindicated in patients, and though some operators undertake catheterization such use closure devices, there are suggest it safe do so. At our institution, reserved whom a relative contraindication route. We have undertaken over 600 angiograms since 1996, 66 underwent...
